MID is a philosophy of how dentistry can be practised. It is based on the belief that the disease should be controlled first and then minimally invasive techniques are used to restore the oral cavity to form, function, and aesthetics. The ultimate goal is to respect the health or oral tissues by preventing disease from occurring, or to intercept the disease process with minimal tissue loss.
Prevention therefore plays a very important part in the practice of Minimally Invasive Dentistry (MID).
Numerous technologies and techniques allow our offices to intercept or treat the disease process with minimal oral tissue loss. The philosophy of Minimally Invasive Dentistry (MID) has applications within all specialties in the field of Dentistry.
